For companies

Hire AI and tech talent, the smart way.

Whether you know exactly who you need or you're just AI-curious, we start with a conversation. I work with AI and tech consultancies, AI and data startups, and businesses bringing AI into manufacturing, finance, real estate and more. And I'm enough of an AI nerd to tell whether someone really knows their stuff, so you only meet people worth your time.

You know what you need

Most of my clients do. I tap a 40,000-strong network, find the best people fast, and run the whole process end to end. From AI and ML engineers to CTOs.

You're not sure yet

You want to use AI but aren't sure what's realistic. That's my favourite conversation. I'll help you work out what's actually possible, then find the talent to build it.

For individuals

Get hired. And get ahead with AI.

Two simple ways to move forward, whatever stage you're at.

Career coaching

Get hired.

My team and I have helped people get 600+ job offers, at Google, Amazon, Deloitte and EY. We coach you to choose the right roles, sell yourself properly, and get in front of the right people.

AI coaching

Get your AI edge.

1-1 training to build your own personal AI stack, the tools and workflows that let you do far more, faster. I'll show you how to wire AI into your everyday work, get hands on with Claude Code, and stay ahead as it all moves. I run these sessions myself.

Mackenzie Thompson

About me

I've been on both sides of the table.

I'm a recruiter, AI advisor and career coach based in Australia, and I've got a bit of an AI addiction I'm not trying to fix. I help founders, CEOs and CTOs work out what AI can actually do for them, where it fits, and who to hire, then I find them the people. And I help individuals at every stage get their next role at places like Google, Amazon, Deloitte and EY.

I'm not a coder, but I know data, solution architecture and full-stack well enough to tell whether someone really knows their stuff, which saves everyone a lot of time. 100+ LinkedIn recommendations, hundreds of happy clients, and a real belief that most people are one good conversation away from their next move.

Reckon I can help? Let's find out.

Whether you're hiring, after your next role, or just trying to make sense of AI, grab a time or send me a note. No pressure either way.

Or DM me on LinkedIn

I'll tell you straight whether I can help. No pitch.
